Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Will this work for tenor trombone?
It's written for bass trombone and tuba. A tenor player could read much of it, but tessitura and range demands are aimed lower.
02Is this for beginners?
Not really. Legato studies assume steady tone and air. Start with a beginner method and come here once notes speak reliably.
03Does it come with accompaniment tracks?
No. It's a printed study book. Work it with a metronome and, if you can, a drone for pitch reference.
04Is it in bass clef?
Yes, it's written for bass trombone and tuba, which both read bass clef. Tuba players should check the notated range against their horn's key.
